There is something else that needs to be considered in this entire scenario.
This disease, unless you are injecting infected prions in to the animal's
brain, takes a long time to manifest itself and have any outward signs that
anything is going wrong inside the animal. It can be years before you can
even suspect that the animal is sick with this problem.

Good point, which is why I mainly consume poultry, as I find red meat to
be
very hard on my digestive system IE my case of diverticulitus may have
been
caused by a staple high in red meats, but also from not eating enough
fibers
as well.

The Question I have is why only one cow in the Middle of
Washington State?


Latest word is the cow came from Canada and there will be more. (NOT
to get in the middle of the strains of "Blame Canada" being of
Canadian birth mineself, but that is what we are hearing now)
